- Very friendly and attentive staff.
- Small but nice pool area. Towels provided.
- Good breakfast and pool snacks.
- Very clean.
- Bathroom area (faucets in the shower) a bit old/rusty.
- 10-15 min walk to the old town.
- Parking a bit "tricky" but manageable with a short walk.

Beautiful, clean hotel with nice service, and a nice pool, close to the beach. Only negatives were that double beds consisted of two single beds next to each other and that the hot tub wasn’t working.

Loved everything except for searching for parking spots although that's not your fault.
The staff was magnificent, especially the girls at the buffet and restaurant.

Beautiful large room, very clean, really good breakfast with large variety of food on offer, nice pool, close to beach. Close to shops and some lovely restaurants. About 20 min stroll into old town. Close to turtle beaches.
In the large room there was both overhead and hand showers and a jacuzzi bath. Lovely friendly and welcoming staff. Just fabulous. Would definitely stay there again.

Great hotel, friendly service, very clean with very good choices for breakfast
Hotel was very close to beach, but be aware that beach is not that swimmable due to rough water and windy weather conditions
The hotel is located just 10 minutes walk from downtown, shops and restaurants
We, as a family of five, had great time and definitely would come back

Modern and sparkling clean. The included breakfast is outstanding for variety of dishes and quality. The staff was super friendly and helpful, especially the night concierge. We had a car and there's no parking, but we had no difficulty finding a place on the nearby streets.

Un soggiorno eccellente! La struttura è ottima, con camere confortevoli e molto pulite. La colazione, completa sia nel dolce che nel salato, merita una menzione speciale. La vicinanza al grazioso centro di Rethymno è un grande vantaggio.

Mooi hotel, was voor ons niet de eerste keer dat we daar zijn geweest, Het ontvangst was al steeds goed, maar nu waren er personeel die ons nog herinneren waardoor het ontvangst nog warmer en dankbaar was, omdat we terug voor hun hadden gekozen.
Daarnaast ligt het hotel heel dicht bij het strand, er is ook een supermarkt in de buurt. Op wandel afstand van de oude stad langs het strand. Heel veel restaurants in de buurt waar je heel lekker kan eten.
Hotel is ook zeer netjes. Mooi zwembad en voor de liefhebbers is er een kleine ontspanning ruimte met sauna en jacuzzi en sportmateriaal
